The protagonist sees someone, goes to the group to tell them and they tell her she didn't see what she saw. Might be triggering to some, but it's not a long discussion.

Pretty graphic leg break. The bone is shown, and eventually, someone pushes the bone back into the leg in order to put it in a splint; all of that is shown as well.

What the hell none of these people are gay at all in any way, unless there was some stupid throwaway line at the start. ""Coding"" doesnt mean anything. How did 18 of you come to the conclusion that these lame ass British women were gay, absolutely insulting to me.... zero intelligence. Dont mark things as yes unless they absolutely happen or youll cause problems for people. Damn.

The monsters are nude, but they hide it quite well. You don't see genital parts, when a monster is facing up front, it gets hidden by a torch or they are shown with their back towards the camera. Only a monster woman shows boobs but also not that graphic.

SPOILERS: Depending on if you watch the original version or the US cut, either everyone dies or only one character survives. The US cut removes the final scene, which in my personal opinion ties everything together far better, despite being very dark.
